[quote][i]Originally posted by p[/i] [quote][i]Originally posted by ed[/i] [quote][i]Originally posted by p[/i] [quote][i]Originally posted by John[/i] Is depression really a disease? Is it not more a state of mind (whether easy to get out of that state or not is another matter) nothing is physically broken is it? [/quote] Jesus christ, John. Count yourself very lucky at your clear lack of knowledge with regards to such a topic. [/quote] How come? The phrase depression covers quite a broad range of things from a normal reaction to something bad to clinical depression which is an illness. [/quote] Well first of all you stated it as 'depression,' initially. So with that I'll just asses what you originally said. Basically, with possibly your lackadaisical approach to such a thing or your knowledge with regards to the subject (not a criticism) I was saying that your lack of understanding counts to your advantage because luckily for you you've never had/nor suffered from a form of depression, or 'clinical' depression if you will. We're not talking 'fuck it's Monday I don't want to go to work' type depression, the 'real' depression if I can say such a thing is waking up Monday morning, just not being able to get out of bed, and wondering if you want to live on this planet anymore. I'm not having a pop at all, just saying that people who have such a lack of knowledge on such a serious topic are very lucky, because clearly they and or loved ones aren't suffering from it. Unfortunately for me I know first hand with regards to this. You can't even begin to sum it up in words. And, given what Robin Williams did, pretty much sums up depression? Or sort of anyway. It can affect anyone, no matter of fame, money, lifestyle etc that in a way doesn't particularly matter. The whole mind can be an evil, evil thing. And the 'state of mind' thing is so utterly wrong to even use. It really is. If only it were the 'state of mind' because if it were, that gives it some sort of rational thought, something unfortunately you can't really have with depression.
